Delete all members of a Facebook group and delete a facebook group

Facebook groups has been around for a long time. Facebook groups has been mostly used for selling things online and is a good alternative for sites like ebay and other selling/action sites basically because it is free and you mostly sell to your target market.

Some people like me admin/own some facebook groups and there are instances that we want to delete a group to create a new one or simply remove the group since it is not being used anymore. Unfortunately for facebook there is no automated way of doing it within their website.

To delete a facebook group, you have to first remove all the members of the group and then you will have to leave the group to complete remove that group. If you have like 50k+ members, removing them one by one is such a big task and will eat up a lot of your time.

Here is an automated way to remove the members of your group. You will need to either use google chrome or mozilla firefox and leave it open while the script is running.

Open the facebook group and browse the members link

Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on “see more”

Now open up your browser the console for your browser. For google chrome the shortcut is “ctrl + shift + j” and for firefox it is “ctrl + shift + k”

paste the code below in the console and let it run and do it’s own thing

Let me know in the comments section if this works out for you. I’ve used it just today and it seems to be working fine. Please take note that facebook updates their website from time to time and change the code, so the code above might stop working after sometime.
